What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I found every teaching experience to be my self-developing because every misunderstanding and discussion is the only way to learn how each individual thinks differently. As a teacher, I am responsible to package the knowledge to account for these differences. We think therefore we are, and teaching is one of the few ways we as human begins to know others are there too. It allows us to develop patience, sympathy, and understanding.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I would say my understanding personality, The job of a teacher is about understanding what the students have difficulty comprehending. This is an inter-people job. Understanding the student is the biggest task. Although we can't truly understand each other, the effort in standing beside each other is what builds our relationship. Trying to understand a different person required persistence and kindness, and I developed those throughout my previous experience.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I am opinion I reckon the most important is for the student to know their true passion in knowledge. Many of us are forced to be good at something and spend thousands of hours of hard work. Everyone could achieve a reasonably high score if they had spent the effort in it, given they were not demotivated during the process. I believe it is most important for an educator to discover the good in a student, and let the student build confidence in what they are passionate about the most. If they can apply the process to other subjects, they can be somewhat proficient in them.Subjects Tutored 🎓

need to finish another practice exam on the student's own time, ideally under exam condition. students really need to revise and memorise the key equation and definition of key words throughout the semester since student struggle to response quickly to this key knowledge, especially related to circular function soh cah, toa, unit circle , also power laws.
it is a good thing that student can complete questions within time limit.

student still show weakness in remembering unit circle, the exact value solution and finding all solution of sin/cos other than the 1st quad. disorganisation in equation writing make it easy to make mistake. the student also needs more focus on transforming quadratic equation to square form.
student can solve problem quite fast. And key knowledge has been utilised such as finding the feature of a sin/cos graph
